I'm not very far into reading it, but so far the reading is very comprehensible. It seems to be organized well. I wish there were more illustrations, such as showing pathways through the body, etc. Otherwise, I like the book and I'm using it constantly for the class. It is not a book you just buy and then put on your shelf.
This textbook is jam packed full of information. However, it is a difficult book to read and understand from. My Pharmacology professor is a Dentist AND a Pharmacist and he said some of the questions asked in the chapters of this book were even beyond his scope of knowledge and far beyond the needs of a hygienist.
I knew I was getting a slighty used book but this is ridiculous! Pages were torn, ripped, coffee stained, filled with drawings. There was highlighting and writing on almost every page. Cover was falling apart and looked water logged. Almost have to wear gloves to use it, it's that gross. Very disappointed they would even attempt to resale this book. Won't buy here again!
Good textbook, nicely presented, everything is listed and grouped in a well organised manner. The book could do with a bit more colour. Does not contain mathematical equations needed for pharmacy.
This book was required for a dental hygienist class for the Fall semester. It is the book required. I received the book quickly through standard mail. Best price I could find.
I like the book because I never get lost. I like the layout and how they word. The book also has some cool stuff at the back - Appendix. Check this out.
This book came very qickly and in great shape! Easy reading, as easy as pharm can be. No high liter marks in it and I would recomend it to others.
The book was in decent condition but it was heavily highlighted. I wish I would have known that before I purchased it.
